"The contractor Johnny was willing to discuss the project and products with me in detail. He was punctual and committed to getting my deck cleaned and stained even though the weather was not cooperative. Our deck looks really nice!"

"Ryan had taken care of our deck several years ago, and impressed us so much, that when we needed our house painted, we reached out to him. Professional and thoughtful describes him. At end of each day is painting, he put everything back in order, so we would be comfortable. We have never had a painter make such an effort to accommodate our needs, while painting our rooms. Would recommend him highly to anyone wanting their house painted, with little disruption. Golden Milo is the best!!"

"I hired Jack and crew to replace a portion of my deck. For a nominal fee, Jack came out, evaluated my deck and gave me an estimate. The nominal fee went toward the estimate, which I thought was fair and reasonable. The cost I felt was fair, not cheap, but not expensive. Jack is very attentive to details, communicative, and was happy to explain what they were doing during the process. The craftsmanship was top-notch. Not only do I strongly recommend Jack and crew for your decking needs, but have hired him to clean and treat my decks this coming fall."

"After 2+ years of researching, getting quotes and attempting an in-house repair (which we found was way beyond our capability) we were blessed with A Plus Concrete & Foundation Repair. Two of our Deacons meet with owner Gary who upon inspection recommended a course of action for our concrete restoration and preservation which some contractors wanted just to replace our concrete for upwards of $48,000.00. After reviewing A Plus's proposal our Deacon Board unanimously voted to hire A Plus Concrete to restore & preserve our conrete entryway, sidewalks and steps. On day one job foreman Joe was one time, professional and reviewed the entire project, the workers were mindful of our Robinson Township Christian School students and busses. I was impressed and please how Joe cordinated the project and lead their team during our concrete restoration project which took 3 1/2 days to complete. We are very pleased with the work A Plus did and for our project it comes with a full two year warranty and support years down the road giving us one less maintenance item off our fairly full plate as we maintain for our church facility. The Deacons at Providence Presbyterian Church would recommend A Plus Concrete & Foundaton Repair to anyone in need of concrete help. Thank you A Plus Concrete & Foundaton Repair for taking care of us, Keith S. - Providence Deacon"

"Phil and his team did a wonderful job digging up my old patio and replacing it with a deck built with Trex materials. The job was done professionally and he worked with me, even when I added additional scope to the job. I highly recommend them and plan on using P Sqrd LLC for future projects."

"The roof looks fine but pretty much everything the folks at Exceptional will tell you will be a lie. I wished I would have used a different contractor. The only reason I'm not more upset is because I had another roofer inspect the work today and he stated the work was acceptable. I was contacted promptly after my initial inquiry, was paid a visit quickly, and received an estimate by Roman(one of the owners). A couple of months and several higher estimates later I decided to use Exceptional Exteriors. You get what you pay for. I was told my roof would take a day or two, it took 3. I was told there would be 5 guys working on the roof and they'd be done quickly. There was 3 the first day and 2 the second and they had to come back to finish the third day because they ran out of material. I was told I wouldn't have to pay anything until the work was complete and I was satisfied with the job they did. Roman came by promptly on day 2 to collect the money before the roof or cleanup was complete. I was told the workers would thoroughly clean up and use a magnetic roller to clean up the nails. That didn't happen either. I came home from work after the dumpster was removed on day 3 and picked up 16 nails from my driveway, and at least 40 nails from my back patio. I had a wasps nest removed from my soffit and fascia 3 weeks ago, and was told by the bee guy that there were tons of nails in my gutters. I called Roman and let him know and he stated he would send a crew out to clean the gutters the following Monday. That never happened so I had to clean the gutters myself. I pulled well over 100 nails from my gutters. He said the roof came with a warranty as did the shingles and it would come in the mail a couple of weeks after the roof was complete. I had to call and text Roman for two months and hear several excuses about why it hadn't been sent until I finally received the warranty. I believe had I never asked for the warranty that it would have never been sent. If you're interested in spending a ton of cash to clean up after the roofers, risk the tires on your vehicles from the nails left behind, and you don't mind being lied to, use Exceptional. If not, hire a different roofing contractor."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Before installing any materials under the deck for removing moisture, you should perform some prep work on the ground. Work the dirt under the deck to create a grade away from the home. A grade of at least six inches for every 10 feet works well. Do not leave a gap between the dirt and the home’s foundation where water could pool. Once you or a contractor regrades the dirt under the deck, you then can add materials over the top.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

Footings for ground-level decks need to be at least 12 inches deep, and some areas require them to be even deeper. A standard range for deck footings is anywhere from 12 to 48 inches. The minimum footing depth is determined by an area’s frost line and soil conditions. If you’re unsure how deep to install deck footings, check local building codes to find the minimum footing depth in your area. 

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

Pressure-treated decks last 15 to 20 years on average, but with proper maintenance, you could get 40 to 50 years of value from yours. Reseal your deck every one to two years, and replace old or rotted wood as soon as possible to avoid structural damage. Where you live plays a role in the lifespan of your deck. Intense sunlight, rainfall, wind, and hail can reduce the deck’s lifespan.
